Temperature

The onset of June in Gou Mbre entails a subtle temperature shift, as the average high-temperature eases from a fiery hot 35.3°C (95.5°F) in May to a tropical 32.3°C (90.1°F). An average minimum temperature of 22.1°C (71.8°F) is recorded during the month of June.

Heat index

Throughout June, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
